SAO PAULO — Brazilian officials have inaugurated the Arena da Amazonia in the jungle city of Manaus, the ninth World Cup stadium to become available for football's showcase event. Three still have to be finished, including the one hosting the opener in Sao Paulo in about three months. The Arena da Amazonia was not fully completed Sunday but local authorities inaugurated the venue with a regional championship match with nearly 20,000 people in attendance, including workers who helped to build the venue. The 44,000-capacity stadium will host four World Cup matches in June, including England vs. Italy and United States vs. Portugal. — AP
